Fulfilled Prophecy?

Now, you are being petty. How old are you?

This is your answer to out of context? Who's being the child here?

Seriously, are you just some teenager goofing off? I can't believe an adult would act this way.

Ah, so in your world, a prophet of God must get up on a hill, split the Red Sea and state, "I'm a prophet of God. Now everyone listen up."

Some of us are a little better grounded in reality than you are. We view prophets of God as truth speakers, called of God to do what they do. And many people view MLK Jr as a prophet as do many people view Gandhi in a similar vein. I certainly do.

You didn't answer my question. I didn't ask why you thought they were prophets, I asked where did they claim to be prophets. And I didn't claim anything about prophets, except that they must prophecy the truth, it is you who are making things up as you go.

Seriously, are you ...

But I thought you were just playing with me and didn't take me seriously? Why would you expect a serious answer? You reap what you sow.

Based on your comments, I think you are just some teenage kid trolling this forum. There is an ignore feature on this forum, so go troll someone else.

Nope, that's in Jo Smith's world:

15 Behold, I say unto you, the redemption of Zion must needs come by power;
16 Therefore, I will raise up unto my people a man, who shall lead them like as Moses led the children of Israel.
17 For ye are the children of Israel, and of the seed of Abraham, and ye must needs be led out of bondage by power, and with a stretched-out arm.
18 And as your fathers were led at the first, even so shall the redemption of Zion be.

~Doctrine and Covenants Section 103

Don't see much of this from Mormon "prophets", but the rhetoric is kinda cool.

You engaged me on this forum. So that would make you the troll. Please feel free to use the feature. There is nothing of substance you could add to the discussion.

See I too spoke prophetically.

Navel gazing and what not.

Nothing wrong with that, SH. People do it all the time. It's when you self appoint yourself as a prophet that speaks for God is when one may run into trouble. When you do that, people expect things from you. If you claim it, own it.
